webext-dynamic-content-scripts on Manifest v2

For Manifest v3, refer to the Usage section on the main readme.

Include webext-dynamic-content-scripts as a background script and add optional_permissions to allow new permissions to be added. The scripts defined in content_scripts will be added on the new domains (matches will be replaced)

// example manifest.json
{
	"optional_permissions": ["*://*/*"],
	"background": {
		"scripts": [
			"webext-dynamic-content-scripts.js",
			"background.js"
		]
	},
	"content_scripts": [
		{
			"matches": ["https://github.com/*"],
			"css": ["content.css"],
			"js": ["content.js"]
		}
	]
}

Permissions for Chrome Manifest v2

This section does not apply to Firefox users.

In order to use all_frames: true you should the add webNavigation permission. Without it, all_frames: true won’t work:

• when the iframe is not on the same domain as the top frame
• when the iframe reloads or navigates to another page
• when the iframe is not ready when runAt is configured to run (runAt: 'start' is unlikely to work)

If available, the webNavigation API will be automatically used in every situation for better performance.
